Hi, I need some help about placing orders , my problem is that whenever I enter a trade by Market as a entry type ,( so not Limit , or Stop Limit ) I just want to enter a trade at the Market price , so far it works , but my problem is that I want to be able to drag the Stop Loss line and Take Profit line to set my Stop loss price and Take profit price, but once I enter a trade at market price I can't do that , how can I achieve this , or how to I place a stop loss or take profit after entering a trade at the market price ? Thankyou |

The best way is to put the Target and Stop as attached orders with the parent Market Order. Just set their position so that they are far enough way that you will not get filled immediately, and then move them from there to where you want. Another option would be to add the orders after the Market has filled by sending them as "Send Attached Orders by Position/Price". But then, you are essentially doing the same thing, as you would need to have the orders far away first, then move from there. Refer to the following: Order Types: Send Attached Orders - Position/Price For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
